Hi

I was trying to access the following URL http://www.borsky.com/
It won't come up on my computer .... 'cannot be displayed.................'

Checked all the mentioned settings and can see nothing.

I've tried it on other computers and it's fine.

What could the cause be ?

Hi Jenny,
=Clear your caches and delete your offline content and cookies.
=Open your Hosts File and delete any instance for the pre-mentioned site and
save and close.
=Rename the Hosts file to Hosts.Old but not the Hosts file ending with the
extension .SAM please leave this alone.
The complete Path for the file is; C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc.
(Presumin you have XP Installed).
Reboot your machine and see if the site is accessable.
HTH.
Please let us know your outcome.
Regards,
nass.
P.S instead of being warrying about removing the Squirrel!, why not include
your OS, AV, Anti-spyware installed on your system, may that help anyone
would like to help to give you the right Procedure.

telnet 80 shows that site does a redirect

<response>
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently

nslookup was very tentative doing a lookup for that second site.

try (in a cmd window) entering:

ping -n 1 www.ukreg.com

Don't worry if the ping times out. You're just doing that to try to cache
the lookup for IE. E.g. if you see in the response to that command

Pinging www.ukreg.com [213.171.192.239] with 32 bytes of data:

then go ahead and try using IE with that second name.


Good luck
